The Ivorian midfielder is a target for Leven Siano, who is bidding for the role of president of the Brazilian club
The incumbent president of Vasco da Gama, Alexandre Campello, has labelled his rival, Leven Siano's attempt to sign former Barcelona midfielder Yaya Toure as "irresponsible".
Siano is in the running for club president as elections at the Rio de Janeiro-based club are due this year, and pledged to sign the ex-Ivory Coast international if he wins.
The Brazilian lawyer posted a video on Instagram a few days back in which he welcomed Toure to the club.
